Commercial shipping through the Strait of Hormuz has fallen sharply following the latest exchange of attacks between the United States and Iran, according to tanker owners\u2019 association INTERTANKO.<\/p>\n

In guidance issued to members on Friday, INTERTANKO said vessel transits along the southern route off Oman\u2019s coast had dropped into the single digits after renewed attacks on commercial shipping on July 7 and subsequent U.S. retaliatory strikes.<\/p>\n

Traffic along the northern route near Iran remained above 20 vessels but was still well below the more than 70 daily transits recorded following the June ceasefire agreement between Washington and Tehran.<\/p>\n

The association said the latest military exchanges were more intense and geographically broader than previous ceasefire breakdowns, including significant attacks affecting Bahrain and Kuwait. Despite the escalation, INTERTANKO said the Gulf region appeared relatively quiet at the time of writing following two days of strikes.<\/p>\n

The group also noted that technical discussions between U.S. and Iranian officials were continuing despite the renewed fighting, focusing on both nuclear issues and future arrangements for Gulf shipping. Meanwhile, the International Maritime Organization\u2019s proposed seafarer evacuation plan remains on hold.<\/p>\n
